bike frame size??

[e6]

hi all, brought a orange frame off e-bay the other week, bloke was advertising the frame as a 17in. i have the same frame in a 19in and fancied down sizing so brought the frame. now, when the frame arrived i put it against my bike and was shocked to see it was the exact same size. so emailed the bloke saying what size it is and after a few emails he has said send it back for a full refund but hes having none of this about the frame size.
ive sent him this pic, am i right or is he?

TBH you both appear right, if he's measured BB too the seatpost welds, he's assumed that, and is right, but your right too, it's a 19
